    I have 6 under 17.  I've never been able to save much, but I carry a ton of life insurance in case something happens to me.  My wife knows how much, so I really need to watch my back.   :laugh1:  In any case, that line from It's a Wonderful Life is true of me, that I'm worth much more dead than alive.
    as I have said b4, the problems of the poor are not so much money problems even though it is that too, but "other" problems.
    People can argue the following all they want but it is TRUE: the poor are treated like they are sub-human. Entititlements, so called are against the poor, do not life anyone out of poverty but keep them there, so the Ds can get some votes and etc.
    And gov workers do not treat the poor w/ any kind of respect bc there is no money in it and they don't just do so out of the goodness of their hearts bc most of them are not Christian
    The poor do not have Constitutional rights. Maybe other groups don't either anymore, but definitely teh poor do not.. If some wealthy person or entity can't get anything from someone, that person is nothing, nada.. 
    it seems all anyone in power cares about is getting more power and more money. No one REALLY cares about PEOPLE... except God but who cares about him?

    • GS you seem to be carrying a large chip on your shoulder about people who are well off.  Life is unequal and "unfair", always has been and always will be; we must stay focused on the purpose of life - getting to heaven.  

    Poor people can get to heaven, but they must avoid feeling envy about those who are better off financially. 

    We are called to help the poor and the suffering but God alone can/will deal with those who do not, and all the wailing and gnashing of teeth will not change that.

    as per usual people miss my point
    I don't have anything against rich people. I certainly have nothing against making a profit. I am a Republican (not a rino)
    I voted for Trump and would probably do so again
    But there ar serious things wrong in this country. Everyone wants to spoutate about this theory and that theory but there are people who are seriously suffering in this so called democratic country. The poor do not have Constitutional rights as the wealthy do.
    they cannot afford an attny if their supposed rights are violated. Therefore, they have no rights at all

    • no one cares bc there is no $$ in caring

    "nothing in it for me, so I am moving on..."

    that is why most people end up in Hell (according to the saints, according to Jesus, according to what you see when you look around you...

    So what are you doing to help, specifically?  "Charity begins at home."   Many of the folks here that you seem to think misunderstand you are possibly not that well-off either. Very few of the trads I know are what I would consider wealthy. Most are just trying to keep their heads above water- and many do give and do what they can to help those in need. Some even sacrifice to do so. In my experience those who rant the most about social issues don't actually do much that is tangible to make things better. (I'm not accusing you of being just another 'keyboard warrior')  You seem to think we don't understand your meaning if we point out problematic issues, and if we don't agree wholeheartedly then we aren't Catholic. Just sayin...
    ps- for a Trumper and a Rep you seem awful quick to stick your hands in other people's wallets to play Robin Hood.

    I don't have a chip and if I do, it is justified
    when certain people don't have what they need, basic necessities of life, that is a sin not to care for them. Read Mt 25:31-46
    and in another psg it says that he who has the world's goods and sees a brother who does not.. How does the love of God live in him?
    A:
    it doesn't
    and as one wise priest (or 2 or 3) said
    w/ o love, you cannot get to Heaven
